L'italiana in Algeri, Opera House Budapest, 30 May
- 30 May 2026 6:30 PM
- classical
After Il barbiere di Siviglia and La Cenerentola, Rossini's third most frequently performed opera is L'italiana in Algeri.
This titillating tale belongs to the ranks of “rescue operas” – a favourite genre of the era that usually stipulated having a beautiful young woman being captured and awaiting torture or death until her heroic beloved arrives on the scene to rescue her.
In this case, ...
Ballet: Swan Lake, Opera House Budapest, 14 May
- 14 May 2026 6:00 PM
- classical
Tchaikovsky’s first ballet is the most beloved classical piece in ballet literature: while the hardships of love between a prince forced into marriage and a maiden enchanted into the form of a swan is one of the most charming Russian romantic fairy tales, the piece nevertheless failed at its original premiere in 1877.
The choreographers creating the premiere were simply not equal to ...
Don Giovanni, Opera House Budapest, 12 May
- 12 May 2026 6:00 PM
- classical
There are works of art that are timeless, that you cannot get tired of, that cannot be performed too many times.
Don Giovanni by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is no exception – it is no coincidence that it is known as the “opera of operas”. And some productions, even if they were staged several decades ago, are still relevant and worth revisiting.
One such production is Don Giovanni, directed ...

In 1991, the calm waters of Budapest’s opera scene were suddenly stirred by a young girl, not even twenty, from Kiskunhalas. During an audition, she dazzled with the famous aria of the Queen of the Night, and director Endre Ütő immediately signed the girl who hadn’t yet graduated from the Academy of Music.
Erika Miklósa made her debut as Papagena, with a background in sports, a radiant ...
Carl Off: Carmina Burana, Opera House Budapest, 26 May
- 26 Apr 2026 7:00 PM
- classical
O Fortuna. Everyone knows the overwhelmingly powerful opening motifs of Carl Orff's most famous work. What fewer people know is that Carmina Burana was not intended to be an oratorical work, but was instead expressly meant for the stage.
This becomes clear from the piece's (originally Latin) subtitle: “Secular songs for singers and chorus to be sung together with instruments and magical ...
Ludwig van Beethoven: Fidelio, Opera House Budapest, 18 April
- 18 Apr 2026 6:03 PM
- classical
Amidst the many stories of strong and heroic men, a work where true strength and resolution are embodied by a woman – even if she must disguise herself as a man to achieve her goal – always raises fascinating questions.
Ludwig van Beethoven’s only opera brings together multiple traditions: it incorporates the Singspiel (a musical drama with spoken dialogue), an almost fairy-tale-like happy ...
Ballet Company of Győr & State Folk Ensemble, National Concert Hall, 8 April

- contemporary
Over the past few years, the compelling multi-arts productions of the Pure Source series have looked at the music Béla Bartók collected in Turkey, the connections between folk and baroque music, and Bartók’s influence on jazz.
These were artistic demonstrations of how Bartók’s collection of folk music has been critical for the work that subsequent generations have carried out for the ...
